If you grew up in the '90s, you know the feeling you got when your parents said you could get a McFlurry at McDonald's. It was pure joy and happiness. The delicious vanilla ice cream treat came swirled with your favorite candy like M&M's, Butterfinger, or Oreos. However, there have been a lot of other additional flavors over the years as reported by Delish. The outlet ranked the all-time best flavors of McFlurry and found that Reese's Peanut Butter Cup was the ultimate fan-favorite. In fact, there's even an entire Twitter account dedicated to bringing the beloved treat back. 

It's hard to believe, but this iconic treat is turning 25 this year, according to a McDonald's press release. And the fast food chain is marking this milestone in a very unusual way. The eatery is inviting fans to celebrate with them at home in some unique loungewear they are calling the "McFlurry 25th B-Day Suit."

The reason behind the quirky McFlurry 25th B-Day Suit

The press release explains the outfit is "perfectly tailored for these not-so-normal times to give fans the feel-good celebration they need this year." The look is in a bold yellow color and features a playful McFlurry pattern, which includes an insulated pocket (seriously) that's ideal for a frozen treat. The unisex outfit is offered in two sizes — S/M and L/XL — and even comes with a coupon for a free McFlurry dessert.

"From video-chat birthday wishes to home-made sign car parades, we know birthdays look a little different in 2020," said Vice President of U.S. Communications at McDonald's, David Tovar. "As a go-to birthday party destination for generations, we knew we couldn't let 25 years of the McFlurry pass us by without a special celebration...2020 style. We're thrilled to give fans a new way to celebrate at-home and experience feel-good birthday moments with McDonald's by offering the one-of-a-kind McFlurry 25th B-Day Suit."

The $25 loungewear is only available for a limited time, so you'll have to act fast if you want this quirky attire. The celebration starts on September 25th at 11:30 a.m. EST and you can purchase the McFlurry apparel at goldenarchesunlimited.com.
